After winning the Charity Shield, five days left before the opening of the new Premier League season, an earthquake finally occurred in English football.

When this earthquake just happened, it was only a small earthquake, and not many people took it seriously. But its impact gradually spread over time, and everyone woke up overnight - maybe this was another shock to change the Premier League pattern!

On August 11, the UAE's Abu Habi Development and Investment Consortium issued a statement announcing that they had officially acquired the England Manchester City Club under Thaksin's name. The former club chairman Thaksin became the honorary chairman and did not have any real power. Just like Abramovich's acquisition of Chelsea, Bates continued to work as the club chairman for a while before leaving.

The news came so suddenly that many people had not yet reacted.

Although everyone knows that the owner of Manchester City club Thaksin has been having a difficult life in the past few months, his wealth has shrunk sharply due to domestic investigations in Thailand. But no one expected that he would actually sell the club that he had held in his hands for only one year!

Just a year ago, when Thaksin moved to Manchester City Club, Manchester City fans did not express much dissatisfaction because they also longed for a championship. Chelsea's success made many fans of other English teams realize that at present, a large amount of foreign assets are the new driving force for the team's redevelopment. Thaksin injected more than half a million pounds into the new team. In the first half, Manchester City once ranked at the top of the league standings. So local media exclaimed: Manchester City is about to usher in the "Thaksin era"!

This is still true, but the boss of Manchester City has changed.

The headquarters of the Abu Habi Development and Investment Consortium is located in the UAE, the city of Abu Habi, a city composed of more than a dozen islands. It is now the wealthiest place in the UAE and the world, with a per capita wealth of up to $17 million, and their investment abroad has almost reached one trillion US dollars!

The secret to their success is that one-quarter of the world's oil is at their feet, and the Abuhabi development and investment consortium happens to be the development and investment oil investment. In addition, Abuhabi's backstage is the UAE royal family.

The British gossip media immediately dug out the news behind the change of ownership of the ball. They claimed that after investigation, the Abuhabi consortium headed by oil businessman Alfasim held ten times more wealth than Abramovich. This news shocked the whole of England.

When Abramovich came to England, it was already scary enough. In the past two years, Abramovich's investment has gradually become more rational, but everyone still remembers the storm that caused when he first came in 2003, which affected until now... Now a richer Abu Habi consortium has come, and all clubs must be careful that the core main players in the team have been poached.

The statement did not disclose how much the transaction involved, and the amount of rumored news was 200 million pounds. Thaksin made a small profit, and it can be seen from this that the reason why he fled Manchester City was simply disappointed that Manchester City could not win the championship. It was because he had no money now and urgently needed to sell the club to cash out.

Some media said that August 11, 2008 will become the most memorable day since its birth, which is comparable to the birth of the team. The subtext is that Manchester City clubs may take advantage of this opportunity to regain their life. Chelsea's yesterday is their day, Chelsea's today is their day, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​AC Milan, Inter Milan and other giant clubs are their day tomorrow. However, in fact, their recent goal is also the most likely to achieve the goal of becoming the next Nottingham Forest...

As the team's head coach, Mark Hughes welcomed the arrival of the new boss on behalf of the team.

"...I know it's not as good as having money, but this scene still makes people look forward to it - we now have enough transfer amounts to find the players we need in the market... You know. What's that feeling? What I mean is, now I feel good, we have the prerequisites to become a successful team. Maybe this season should I set the team's goal to next season's Champions League?"

Look, Mark Hughes has never been so wide-ranging, so happy that he is incoherent...

Tang En learned about this news when he was having breakfast. Although it was not news since several years ago that foreign capital entered the Premier League. But I am afraid that the wealth of those foreign bosses is not as good as that of the Abu Habi family...

He held a fork in his mouth and stared at the photo of Alfasim in the newspaper.

He was wondering what impact the arrival of this new boss would have on Nottingham Forest?

He was the first to think of Ribery. He was always worried about this subordinate of a bad agent. He could not transfer to Real Madrid, so he might not be able to make some tricks for this unwilling agent to come out. The Manchester City Club, which is rich and powerful, is instigating Ribery to switch to Manchester City?

After thinking about it, Don Eun rejected this assumption. Even if Manchester City can pay 5 million pounds a week, Ribery will not go to a place where he can't even get honors. He wants to go to Real Madrid. On the one hand, Real Madrid can meet his salary requirements, and on the other hand, it has something to do with Real Madrid itself as a world-renowned club. It is very likely to get honors here and attract the attention of the whole world. But what's there to go to Manchester City? No matter how rich this team is, can it become a league champion and European champion overnight?

Tang En sneered.

He made such a judgment not because he left a bad impression on Manchester City for Richards some time ago, but because he really looked down on the strength of Manchester City. Mark Hughes is not a successful coach, and Don doesn't think he can lead Manchester City to achieve anything.

Is it awesome to have money? Can you buy all the heroes in the world if you have money?

Stop dreaming, Mark Hughes.

You can afford to pay, my players don’t want to go there!

In the following days, while preparing for the new season nervously, he watched how Manchester City club supported by oil fathers make trouble in the transfer market and kept hitting the wall. It became Tang En's entire life.

The whole world knows that Manchester United is chasing Berbatov. The whole world knows that Berbatov has long been "spoken" to Ferguson. Now the whole world is waiting for Tottenham Hotspur boss Levi to raise the price to a high enough time.

If Don En hadn't been very satisfied with his forward configuration, he might have intervened in Berbatov's transfer.

Now this dark idea has been realized by Manchester City. The new boss announced the bid for Berbatov on the first day of moving into the team.

As a pair of mortal enemies in a city, Manchester City is happy to do anything that can make Manchester United uncomfortable. They may not really need Berbatov, but it is certain to go against Manchester United.

This made Ferguson very angry. As soon as he was about to succeed, Manchester City opened his mouth to raise Berbatov's net worth to 29 million pounds. Levi, the cunning and greedy fox, turned his eyes and refused Manchester United's offer, pretending to hesitate whether to accept Manchester City's offer.

At the same time. While AC Milan and Barcelona were chasing Adebayo, Manchester City took action.

Although he knew that Wenger would not agree to Adebayo's departure, Manchester City still offered a high price of 28 million pounds. Wenger took this opportunity to reject the offer from AC Milan and Barcelona, ​​and also offered a new contract for Adebayo with a weekly salary of 80,000 pounds, and waited for him to sign the contract to take effect.

Mourinho finally ended his life in seclusion at home and took office again. This time he settled in Serie A giants Inter Milan. As soon as he arrived in Inter Milan, there was news that he wanted to take Lampard and Drogba away. In addition, Real Madrid also hoped to introduce an excellent center, and they also fell in love with Drogba. This time, Manchester City disrupted the situation again, making a transfer a mess.

On this first day, Manchester City has allowed the entire European football world to see their style... how annoying it is.

Don't know what purpose Manchester City did this. Is it fun to make enemies everywhere? Is it fun to play performance art? Or is Abu Habi really an idiot who knows nothing about football and thinks that anyone can buy it if he has money.

But look at the results of these three transfers.

When Berbatov saw that Levi was going to go back on his word, he immediately jumped out for an interview and publicly stated that "I will not marry unless I am Manchester United." Manchester City wants to buy him? Let's wait for the next life!

Manchester City's offer scared AC Milan and Barcelona away. Adebayo was annoyed, and he would never condemn himself to go to a small place like Manchester City, and he would never go even if he stayed in Arsenal! So he signed Daming on the new contract prepared by Wenger for him.

Drogba? He didn't even look at Manchester City. Inter Milan and Real Madrid had an ambiguous attitude, so he eventually stayed at Chelsea.

This painful fact proves Tang En's previous idea that he cannot buy the players he wants to buy with money. The world of football is not a world where money is invincible. A second-rate team like Manchester City still has a long way to go to become a god.

Out of a hatred for the rich, Tang En seemed gloating about Manchester City's experience. He liked to see rich people being defeated because who made him not rich...

In the transfer market, I can't buy the person I like for a while. Tang En plans to take back his energy and put it in the league that will start soon. Anyway, there is still half a month left before the summer transfer window is closed, so let's look for it while playing.

In the first round of the new season, Nottingham Forest will challenge West Ham United away. The opening game will be Arsenal's home match against West Bromwich.

West Ham United is not a very powerful opponent, and Don Eun also attaches great importance to it. Because this is the first game of the new season after all.

Chinese people pay attention to "everything is difficult at the beginning". If this end is not good, Tang En would think it will have a bad impact on the whole season. In addition, from a superstitious perspective, it is really unlucky not to start well...

So all the main players went to fight.

Van der Sar, Pepe, Kompany, Gareth Bale, Rafinia, George Wood, Van der Fate, Ribery, Beckham, Van Nystruey and Eastwood.

Such a lineup is championship-level. Tang En believes that there should be no problem when going out for the away game.

As a result, the three words "unlucky" came to his mind at the beginning of the game.

After Van der Fate got the ball in the midfield, he was fiercely tackled by West Ham United midfielder Li Baoye. When Bower tackled Van der Fate, he also made a "scissors leg" move, and cleared Van der Fate's left foot. At that time, Van der Fate was still lying on the ground and made a gesture of requesting a substitution. At this time, only ten minutes had passed since the game began...

Tang En jumped up from his seat and cursed and sweared. What made him angry was not only Van der Fate's injury, but also because Bowyer, as the murderer, only received a verbal warning from the referee and did not even have a yellow card. He patted his butt and got up from the ground. He pretended to step forward to comfort Van der Fate, but was pushed away by George Wood.

Bower covered his face and fell down, which immediately triggered a conflict between the players on both sides.

In the end, the referee gave George Wood a yellow card and Behrami, who was active in the conflict, played 50 boards each before the two teams separated.

"This bastard..." Of course, Don was not scolding George Wood, in fact he was very supportive of George Wood's actions. He was scolding Bowyer. After so many years, this scum still showed no sign of improvement. It seems that this game at JJB Stadium will not be easy.

Van der Fate was carried down on a stretcher. Team doctor Fleming told Donn that he would never be able to play again in this game and he had to make a substitution. Shahin, who was still receiving psychotherapy, did not come to London with the team in this game. Donnn had to replace Petrov and let Ribery go to the middle.

Van der Fate's injury disrupted the tactics and rhythm of Nottingham Forest. For a period of time, West Ham United gained the upper hand with their home advantage, suppressing Nottingham Forest's penalty area and bombarding.

Fortunately, George Wood performed stably as always and organized the defenders to set up two defensive positions in front of the goal. West Ham United had no better way to break through the Forest's goal for a while.

However, no matter how good the defense is, it is possible to collapse in the face of endless attacks. Before the end of the first half, the Welsh bad boy Bellamy forced his way through Rafinia with speed and then penetrated into the penalty area. He suddenly shot with a very small angle!

The football was hit by Van der Sar and hit the inside of the goal post and bounced into the net...

"The defending champion is in a tough battle away! West Ham United told them that the defending champion's new season is definitely not a smooth journey!"

In the second half, Donnon replaced Beckham with Lennon. With excellent speed and breakthrough ability, Lennon did cause a lot of trouble to West Ham. His attack on the right side was more penetrating, which was incomparable to Beckham.

With this substitution adjustment, Nottingham Forest swept the sluggishness of the first half. Seventeen minutes after the second half, he finally equalized the score. The goalkeeper was Van Nistrue. Lennon's breakthrough caused the weak defense in the middle of the penalty area. The sense of the small penalty area king helped him find the life goal of West Ham United at the most critical moment.

Next, when the game was about to end, Nottingham Forest, who had not given up on the offense, scored another goal. The goal was Ribery. He broke through in the middle and shot from the top of the arc. The football rushed into the goal of West Ham United like a cannonball. The commentator kept shouting "World Wave".

Tang En also jumped up from his seat excitedly, and reversed the final moments to the decisive victory. West Ham United to death!

Although he won the game, Tang En did not want to let anyone go at the post-match press conference. He fiercely criticized Li Baoye for his lack of sports ethics, and then raised "question" of the referee's penalty on this foul. Of course, his doubts are generally more straightforward-
Chapter completed!
